Comment(by nacin):

 The issue with removing loading.gif and loading-publish.gif is that a
 plugin may be using them. (Indeed, if a plugin developer goes looking for
 an ajax loading animated gif in wp-admin/images, they're probably more
 likely to notice loading*.gif than they are wpspin_*.gif.)

 No real harm in keeping those, as they add very little weight to the
 package, and add nothing to page load -- unless a plugin is using them, of
 course.

 On the other hand, the other ones are from Woo, [13267]. Those can go.

 Compressing -- definitely something we should do. I don't really like
 PunyPNG because it's a site, versus a script like pngcrush.
